Default Recharging Jaguar S type 1999 AC

Hello guys
I have a Jaguar S type 4.0 1999 model

Have tried the low side and freon doesn't last long

​​​​​​​Anyone with insight on this?

Welcome.

Re-ask in the S Type Tech Section. They will know.

If it dont last long there must be a leak.

Welcome to the forum eooyibo,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

That's one job where I prefer to use a specialist. Drain the system down, pressure test for leaks and then recharge with the correct ratio of refrigerant and PAG oil. However, a number of members do it themselves and you will find threads in the model forum.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ed-v8-x200-15/ to the S-Type forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/other-areas-43/
to find other members in your part of the World.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
